Neutral city in Asia Minor a stone's throw from Constantinople.

Governor until September, 987: Kalikyros Delphinius

Governor in Absentia: Lord Hesiod (aka Captain Halcyon)

Acting Governor: Eorl the Confessor

Plagued by Michael Bourtzes, Michaelism, Throkianism, Tailed People, Liten, Norwit, Bogatyrs, The Crazy Cat Lady, the Nicomedean Dandy Party, etc.

The harbor was filled in when Michael Bourtzes was laying siege, but is now being re-dug.

Prominent citizens include Oeonoe, Arctophilus (Beardo), Kolya, Helena, Admes, Brynos, B The Beholder, and formerly Ishopra. Perun and Leo are more or less always there, too, and Lugurix is always stopping by for hijinks. And don't forget Shkurte!

Home base of the world famous Danger Gang.

Location of the Gregory Memorial Library, part of Arben's stronghold, The Governor's Mansion Inn.

For the record, the captain of the guard is named Xenon; Pantygathus (former captain) is now his right-hand man.

An insteresting side note about the Chrysopolis is the large number of monsters that have taken up residence there and lived in relative peace with humanoids. There's B,a beholder-kin; Xenon, a (former) mummy; Ishopra, a demoness; Shkurte, some sort of turtle river pixie thing; and Nelcheal, a fallen angel. Indeed, if ever there was a town for monsters looking to turn over a new leaf, Chrysopolis is it.
